The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyer

This book fills in some of the back story of Eclipse. We meet Bree Tanner, one of the newborns who fights in Riley's army. Probably the best part of this story was Fred, whose special vampire power is the ability to repulse people (though Meyer remains congenitally unable to write a physically unattractive character, since once Bree gets near him, he sounds cute), but he gets a minor role. While the part about the newborns trying to figure out the rules of being a vampire was mildly interesting, there was a lot of writing for not much payoff in this book. I found this book to be mildly less misogynistic than the main series, but it's very much in line with Meyer's other work.
